Day 6

I am a moose. I went home after work Wednesday to change out of work clothes and into clothes to go to choir practice. I was looking for something fun and funky and yet every outfit I tried on made me look like a barnyard animal in a tarp. I concluded I may not be able to leave the house until April which is when I calculate I might be able to fit back into my cute clothes. Right now, I can only fit into Moose Coverings.

I made myself leave the house and went to sing. I figured singing and dancing a little would burn off some calories. Afterward, my friends came over to watch American Idol, part 2 and I got all healthy snacks - veggies and fat free dip which I made from fat free sour cream and fat free soup mix - Baked Dorito's tortilla chips and salsa, a sub sandwich from which I picked off most of my bread and just ate the insides (which makes it not a sub but just a big pile of turkey and lettuce) and a plethora of diet beverages. My friend Jill told me how happy she was that I got healthy things - but she's skinny so of course she'd say something like that. What I really wanted was Oreo's and milk, but ate carrots and dip so I could fit into my Non-Moose clothes again someday soon.

Thursday was the Monthly Birthday Potluck at my office. I made vegetable soup in my crock pot so I'd have something to eat. I ate two bowls of soup, some salad with about 5 drops of salad dressing, and one bite of birthday cake which my friend Vanessa assured me was only 1/2 of a point. Even if she is way off, that's what I am writing down.
